Emily Anderson - unfinishing

This week I am reminding myself of @elizabday’s adage that SOME PEOPLE DON’T LIKE CHEESE

I’ve written a thing about Adam Phillips’ “On Giving Up”- Phillips is interested in tragic heroes as people who don’t give up, which raises the question of whether giving up belongs to a comic world (link in bio) #givingup #comedy #writing #blog

Would be interested to hear about other examples of unfinished things from history... #History #unfinishing #unfinished #podcast #twitterstorians #interview #fashion #bras #plato #Classics

I've made a collection of #unfinished things from #history and #historians. It covers Plato's legend of #Atlantis (which ends mid sentence), #fashion history (including an unfinished book about bra history), & tales of unfinished history tours: unfinishing.co.uk/history

Best thing about Valentine’s Day is still seeing people walking about with flowers (especially the sheepish blokey blokes)

My bit on why I like unfinishing things and what unfinishing is all about: unfinishing.co.uk/blog/backpacki… #unfinished #podcast #article

Very pleased with the lovely new unfinishing website and artwork. Lots of work has gone into it- really hope you enjoy having a look! There are loads of episodes on there and new ways to get in touch :-) unfinishing.co.uk #podcast #unfinishing #art #website

The Swedish expression "ingen ko på isen" means that there is nothing to worry about, and literally translates as "There are no cows on the ice". 🐄🧊 Can anyone share any other good phrases from other languages for when everything is a-ok?

“1.0” is the 90s film and “2.0” is the (excellent) documentary - available on Netflix!

The latest is out! Sophia Siddique Harvey tells me about her experience of making the film “Shirkers” in the 90s, & appearing in Sandi Tan’s 2018 documentary telling the tale of how the film was stolen… open.spotify.com/episode/0CjT5S… #shirkers #film #unfinished #podcast

@PeteOlusoga You’re very much not the only one! I’ve interviewed lots of people who’ve struggled with finishing things in various different ways (and who say sometimes that’s ok…)

@alixbeeston @MHCHarvard This sounds excellent 😊

Would love to see you in-person or online at @MHCHarvard's Novel Theory seminar on Tues 17 Sept, 6pm local time, where I'll share new work on an unfinished novel in Kathleen Collins's archive – plus edited excerpts of the as-yet-unpublished manuscript: mahindrahumanities.fas.harvard.edu/event/alix-bee…

@thatwendyward @matthewsyed If you’re interested in unfinished and abandoned projects more broadly, have a listen to my podcast, called unfinishing, which also features the wonderful Loose Ends knitters and explorations of many more unfinished works: open.spotify.com/show/1ez2Ji4YE…
